The Merger is conditional on shareholder approval.

If the Merger is approved, each outstanding ordinary share of FML (Delaware) will be converted into and represent the right to receive one share in the Company save that each outstanding ordinary share of FML (Delaware) whose holder is not an "accredited investor", as such term is defined in Rule 501 of Regulation D promulgated under the United States Securities Act 1933, as amended, will be converted into and represent the right to receive a cash payment in U.S. Dollars calculated based on the average closing price on the London Stock Exchange for the twenty consecutive trading days prior to and including 15 October 2010. The shares of the Company will then be admitted to trading on AIM ("Admission"). Upon the Merger becoming effective, ordinary shares in FML (Delaware) will be cancelled, resulting in the respective holdings of shareholders in the Company (excluding holders who are not "accredited investors") being the same as the respective holdings of shareholders in FML (Delaware) immediately prior to the Merger becoming effective.
